The very first document: Russia began to issue birth certificates at maternity hospitals

The birth certificate of a child is the first document that allows parents to issue allowances, register a baby, issue him a medical insurance policy and register with the children's clinic.

To save parents from unnecessary trips to the registry office or the MFC, issue birth certificates started in some maternity hospitals.

While this service was introduced as an experiment in 13 maternity hospitals in Moscow.

At check-out home, the parents there are handed over not only a pink or blue package with the baby, but also his first identification card.

The main difficulties lie, oddly enough, in the moms and dads themselves.

To make such a document still in the hospital, parents must, within a few days after delivery. decide on the child's name. Namely, with this often there are big problems.

Nevertheless, Muscovites have already appreciated the innovation. The government of the Russian Federation believes that such experience should be extended to other regions of the country in the near future.

To obtain a certificate right in the maternity hospital, the woman in labor must write an application on a special form that will be provided to her immediately after the birth, as well as provide the original passport - her own and her husband.

You also need to take a marriage certificate with you to the maternity hospital. Medical certificate confirming the fact of the birth of a new person, doctors will attach themselves.

Cooperation agreements have been reached with the MFC and the Federal Office of Civil Registry Offices.

The new service in the maternity homes of the country will appear gradually, and therefore pregnant women are advised in advance to call the chosen obstetric institution and clarify whether they can issue a birth certificate to the child on the spot.

Earlier it was reported that the birth certificate is planned to be replaced with an electronic birth record, which will give access to all state and municipal benefits and services. But for the time being, the issue of digital evidence has been postponed.
